ST. LOUIS! Cheap and you get the city lifestyle with the woods and rural lifestyle 10 mins away

Damn another L for the city boyz if you leave us

Shot you a DM ser. 🤣🤙🏻

Portugal. Civilized enough yet a little bit savage. European enough, yet a little bit Mediterranean. People are kind enough but a little bit impolite. And they speak "Brazilian" with a strange accent. (But most speak fluent English)

moved onto 40 acres down a long dirt road, got some goats and chicken about 1.5 years back, best decision of my life, highly recommend

YES

Stay in cities. Improve them. So we can go back.

Let me give you my unsolicited advice on this matter. Two things really. One. Dont bring the shitty to the country. Theres a reason you left, we dont that shit out in the country. Two. Dont be a city slicker in the country, youre gonna have a bad time. Embrace the slower paced life.

Cities lame

I live in a small town, very nice and near nature. Nature on my doorstep. I walk around the suburb everyday. Spectaular place and has everything I need. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worcester%2C_South_Africa?wprov=sfla1

They’re not bad not all of them and you have to do what works for you. You can’t listen to everybody else.

The problem with cities is when unrest happens it always starts there. Depending on what city and how big it is, maybe consider have a bug out location instead Say something 50-100 miles out. You could use it as a weekend get away. Also nice to find a homesteader group or a group of like minded peop...

I just drove to Florida so I can be closer a city to be able to earn more money to stack sats. I sleep in my van to keep my expenses low. I've now evacuated Florida because of the hurricane in SC now. Might go back to Austin TX. interesting take.

Cities aren't bad. Everyone is different, it's your life.

Choose the right woods and you’ll never be alone

What metrics are you using to decide? So many different things going into this kind of thing

Funchal or Mexico City.

My wife and I moved to the hills just east of Sacramento last year. The solitude has been indescribably healing to my head, heart, spirit, and soul. Honestly, though, it feels as though I’ve “gotten it out of my system” and we both are dying to move closer to town; not a city, since we both gr...

Just my humble opinion, cities aren’t inherently bad. Depends on your own individual concerns, needs, and wants. For people considering big moves it may be best to rent while you are getting a feel for a new area and deciding what works best for you.
